The German Crystal Growth Conference (DKT 2026) will take place in Germany at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT).
DKT is one of the key scientific conferences in Europe dedicated to crystal growth and related materials research. It brings together researchers and industry professionals working on bulk and thin-film crystal growth, defects and impurities, thermodynamics and modeling, as well as advanced characterization techniques. The conference traditionally covers a broad range of materials, including semiconductors, oxides, halides, and optical crystals.
With its strong scientific program and close interaction between academia and industry, DKT 2026 offers an important platform for knowledge exchange, networking, and discussion of current challenges and future directions in crystal growth.
